− | ''What is the OWASP Project ReBoot initiative?''
| |
− | | |
− | OWASP needs to refresh, revitaliase & update its projects. We need to make the software development community more aware of our efforts and demonstrate the foundations library of solutions & guidance designed to help with the secure application development lifecycle.
| |
− | | |
− | The proposal for this initiative is here:
| |
− | '''[https://docs.google.com/a/owasp.org/file/d/0B5Z9zE0hx0LNSUZvOWVKd1JRWnlVaGJMcjB3SEN3Zw/edit Project Re-Boot Proposal]'''
| |
− | | |
− | To that end we have a budget to fund various project related activities. We hope putting some financial support behind projects will re-energise our community and hopefully deliver some great high quality material which can be used to support software developers and testers for years to come:
| |
− | | |
− | '''Activity types''':
| |
− | | |
− | '''Type 1''': Update, rewrite & complete guides or tools.
| |
− | This "type" is aimed at both existing tools or guides which require development effort to update, augment, rewrite, develop in order to achieve a high quality release quality product.
| |
− | | |
− | Examples:
| |
− | #"Mini" Project based summits: Expenses associated with getting global workshops, with the aim of releasing a new version of a project.
| |
− | #Paying contributors for their time and effort.
| |
− | #Paying for user guides etc to be professionally developed.
| |
− | | |
− | '''Type 2''': Market, Training, Awareness, increase adoption.
| |
− | Existing, healthy robust tools and guides can utilise Type 2 activities to help with creating awareness and increasing adoption of that project.
| |
− | | |
− | Examples:
| |
− | #Assisting with expenses associated with marketing a project | |
− | #Costs facilitating OWASP project focused training and awareness events
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | '''How are we going to fund this??'''
| |
− | We are requesting all OWASP chapters which are in a healthy financial position to pledge 25% of their chapters funds to pay for this initiative.
| |
− | The Foundation shall also support this initiative with additional funding.
| |
− | The goal is to accumulate a budget of $100K which shall be appointed to projects undergoing this reboot.

− | '''Can I apply for this Reboot?'''
| |
− | You certainly can, assuming you are an OWASP member.
| |
− | The foundation has already selected some projects (core projects) which will undergo reboot.
| |
− | If you feel your project is ready or has potential you can apply for the reboot programme.
| |
− | | |
− | | |
− | '''How does funding work?'''
| |
− | Type 1: Funding can be applied for as required if travel/mini summit etc is to be expensed as part of the reboot. Development activities; payment to contributors shall be at 50% and 100% milestones.
| |
− | Milestones are agreed prior to project reboot initiation.
| |
− | | |
− | Type 2: Funding is supplied as required. Items to be funded are agreed prior to reboot initiation.
